*
And now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon ,
my servant ;
and the beasts of the field have I given him also to serve him .
*
And all nations shall serve him ,
and his son ,
and his sons son ,
until the very time of his land come :
and then many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of him .
*
And it shall come to pass ,
that the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon ,
and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon ,
that nation will I punish ,
saith the LORD ,
with the sword ,
and with the famine ra #
ab #,
and with the pestilence ,
until I have consumed them by his hand .
*
Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets ,
nor to your diviners ,
nor to your dreamers ,
nor to your enchanters ,
nor to your sorcerers ,
which speak unto you ,
saying ,
Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon :
*
For they prophesy a lie unto you ,
to remove you far from your land ;
and that I should drive you out ,
and ye should perish .
*
But the nations that bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon ,
and serve him ,
those will I let remain still in their own land ,
saith the LORD ;
and they shall till it ,
and dwell therein .
